LONG POND, Pa. (AP) - Points leader Frank Kimmel took the lead on the 53rd lap and won the ARCA 200 Saturday at Pocono Raceway for his series-high fourth victory of the season.

While Kimmel has dominated the ARCA series with six straight championships, he found it pretty tough to take the checkered flag at Pocono. Since winning at the 2.5-mile triangular track in 1999, Kimmel finished second in the race three times.
“We’ve had a lot of great success here, we just haven’t won a lot,” Kimmel said.

Chad McCumbee roared back from the 34th spot to finish .963 seconds behind Kimmel and Erin Crocker, one of stock car racing’s promising young female drivers, was third in the 80-lap race. David Ragan and Ken Weaver rounded out the top five.
